Trish Glen
eBay Seller
Trish's journey to eBay was an unusual one. When working in construction for 15 years, selling fashion online was not even a thought, but then an opportunity arose to buy an established women’s consignment shop. That turned out to be an unmitigated disaster. For four years she tried desperately to make it work and when it didn’t, Trish turned to eBay in a last ditch effort to bring in money to pay the rent. This one decision turned into a viable business that she didn’t even know was available to her. eBay gave Trish the ability to take a failing business and turn it into a six-figure viable, profitable and workable business. Trish is an expert in speaking the local Boston language which makes her invaluable as co-lead of the Wicked Smart eBay New England Sellers Group with Diane Lassonde. https://sellerevents.ebay.com/ebay-new-england-sellers/ https://sellerevents.ebay.com/ebay-new-england-sellers/

Scot holds a Bachelor of Science, Computer Science, Business Administration and Psychology from California State University, Chico. He also hold 7 patents. His favorite eBay moment is: It is so hard to pick just one, so I will go with two. (1) The very first time I met a seller who had lost their “trained career” due to circumstances beyond their control (in this case severe injury), and turned their focus to eBay as a means to successfully provide for their family from school age, to college tuition. In that moment the full gravity of the responsibility we hold to deliver well for our customers hit home for me. Since that first experience with that seller, I have met so many others of similar circumstance – nothing is more humbling and motivating. (2) As an active seller on the platform, I sell a lot of items – most that I ship, some via local pick up. One item I sold via local pick up was a maternity chair bought by a person local to San Jose, California. As a pick up location, I gave the person the address of eBay’s campus. Unbeknownst to the buyer that I work for eBay, we met in the parking lot and while I was helping load the chair in to the buyer’s car, he happened to look up to see eBay’s logo on the buildings – and asked “Does everybody come here to pick things up?” Turns out it was that person’s first ever eBay purchase. Years later they are now a seller and buyer on eBay. To this day, we keep in touch over email on product ideas / feedback. It’s the connections eBay creates that I love best.
